A BUsHEL OF APPLICANTS.

WASHINGTON, Jan. If the President
would only have the consideration to
wait until March 4, before filling the
places on the interstate commerce
commission there would be a
chance for the defeated members
to secure appointments, and since
the law is not to go into effect for sixty
days from the time that it shall be signed,
it is, of course, not necessary that the
commissioners shall be appointed before
March +. federal office-h holder, how
ever, who is on good terms at the White
House, says:
at is the intention OF the President TO
have the commission complete and all the
members OF il confirmed before the eXpir
alton Of the present Congress. The
President does not wish to have
the board of commissioners enter upon
so important work without con-
frmation, and there does not seem to be
at present an eXigency which would
make it necessary to convene the
Senate in executive session, much less
The Fifthieth Congress in extra SEES
sion; consequently, if the commission
ers shall not be confirmed before
March 4, thev cannot in the ordinary
course of things be confirmed until De-
cemb r; so the C1ngressmen who are not
reelected will be barred out if the Presi-
dent shall adhere to this determination"

serge ant was awakened again, this time by hts
son, who sleeps In an adjoining room. He arose.
turned up the gas, and got his revolver from hts
trowser's pocket. He went to his sons room
where he found the youth in a state OF great ter

where his father kept his money he would choke

Exensoss0a Of Churches.

To the Editor o. The EVENING STAR:
1 notice the reply VI r. 5. W. to Dr. Harrold's
claim that improved real estate belonging to tneo-
logical corporations ought TO be exempted from
taxation, and agree fully with p 8. w. that they
should no. be. never have been able to See any
good reason for the exemption OF the churches
themselves. They receive all the benefits OF local
improvements that any other building does-sew-
eraSe, street pavements sidewalks, light, police
protection, and everything else. Why, then should
they not pay their share OF the expense? The
simple fact that a certain portion OF the pubic
choose 10 unite and put their money into a build
lug ior their own convenience, or, you please as
a means or propagating their beliefs or ideas on
morals or certain Setof religious ideas Is no rea-
son way The rest OF the public, who entertain DIR.
Ierent Ideas on these same subjects should bear
the burdens for them. 10 my mind there Is very
little difference between this and the existing
practice OF Great Britain OF taxing the entire nun.
Tic Tor the support OF the church. II differs only
IN degree, and net In Kind. They so step further
and tax the puDlic for the support or the Church
While we tax the public only for the Improve
ments about the churches, their protection by the
police, &c. can see no justice or reason In IT, No
property should be exempt except that which be-
longs To the Government, District or national

he rode his 1rst race at Brighton in 1850 and
from that Year onward he scored success after
success riding Ia all nearly $500 winners He
had no good chance OF winning either Derby or St
Leger Until 1868, when he rode Lord CHfden az
EPSON. Middle-ased English TURTLES still draw a
deep breath when they tell how Chaloner came
with rush, and how Lord Clifden was beaten at
the post. In spite OF this and other misfortuneS
Fordaam amassed money and deserted the scene
